Barks caricature in quiet neighborhood story? (WDC 178)

[Daniel van Eijmeren]

In the quiet neighborhood story (WDC 178), Donald gets in a quarrel 
with an author living next door.

Somewhere in Donald Ault's book "Carl Barks Conversations", Barks 
remembers that he based this story on real-life circumstances. He 
really had loud neighbours at the time. (Can someone check up this 
part?)

Looking at the story, I find that the author looks like a caricature 
of Carl Barks. Especially on page 5 and 6, when he still wears his 
glasses. Only his hairdo looks a bit too unorganized. (But then, it's 
the middle of the night.)

BTW. I think I've seen far more Barks caricatures in Barks's work than 
the few very obvious ones which are already known. I can list some, if 
you like.
